Additional Information on Phosphorus
BACK TO MAIN CYCLE Form taken up by plant: H2PO4-, HPO4= Mobility in soil: None; roots must come in direct contact with orthophosphate P Mobility in plant: Yes Deficiency symptoms: Lower leaves with purple leaf margins Deficiency pH range: <5.5 and >7.0 Toxicity symptoms: None Toxicity pH range: Non toxic (optimum availability pH ) Role in plant growth: Important component of phospholipids and nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) Role in microbial growth: Accumulation and release of energy during cellular metabolism Concentration in plants: 1,000 – 5,000 ppm (0.1 –0.5%) Effect of pH on availability: H2PO4- at pH < 7.2 HPO4= at pH > 7.2 Interactions with other P x N, P x Zn at high pH, in anion nutrients: exchange P displaces S, K by mass action displaces Al inducing P deficiency (pH<6.0) MORE INFO

Additional Information on Phosphorus (Cont.)
BACK TO MAIN CYCLE P fertilizer sources: Rock phosphate, phosphoric acid, Ca orthophosphates, ammoniumphosphates, ammonium poly-phosphates, nitric phosphates, K phosphates, microbial fertilizers (phosphobacterins) increase P uptake Additional categories: Mineralization/ C:P ratio of < 200: net mineralization of immobilization: organic P; C:P ratio of : no gain/loss of inorganic P; C:P ratio of >300: net immobilization of inorganic P P fixation: Formation of insoluble Ca, Al, and Fe phosphates Al(OH)3 + H2PO4- Al(OH)2HPO4 (Soluble) (Insoluble) Organic P sources: Inositol phosphate (Esters of orthophosphoric acid), phospholipids, nucleic acids, phosphate sugars Inorganic P sources: Apatite and Ca phosphate (unweathered soils) and Fe and Al sinks from P fixation (weathered soils) Waste: Poultry litter (3.0 to 5.0%), steel slag (3.5%), electric coal ash (<1.0%) MORE INFO
